Amazing! Lovely to hear you're doing so well.

Also I think you're exceptionally strong to have had surgery aged 21. How I wish I had - I bet lots of people tried to talk you out of it.

Congratulations!!! That is so amazing! You rocking this journey. I’m definitely jelly. I had my surgery 2/28, I was 290 on surgery day, I weighed 277 yesterday 😞 during preop I lost 42lbs guess my body is tired now lol

good luck to you on your remaining journey.

Thank you guys so much & yes people did try to talk me out but i knew what i wanted for my future ! & it’s ok luv you started 100 pounds smaller so you will loose a little slower then someone who started at 300 plus pounds but i can’t wait until the scale starts with 2 !! Good luck on your journey !!
